I always like to spend this time of year thinking through who and what I'm thankful for, and that's especially true this year.

When I think about our accomplishments -- rebuilding a strong economy that's helped millions of Americans find new jobs, making health care more affordable for those who need it, seeing our schools graduate students at record numbers -- I'm always conscious of the fact that I didn't do those things alone.

So this year, Diane, you're at the top of my list. And I want to send you a short note to thank you for being part of everything we've done in my two terms as president.

It's more important than ever to have the facts by your side. You're still one of the best messengers for this movement, so here's some recommended reading -- from credible sources -- that's easy to share. No fluff, just facts. That's the Truth Team way. Enjoy!

Employers in the U.S. added 178,000 non-farm jobs in November, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Friday. The unemployment rate dropped to 4.6% from 4.9%. This marks the 74th consecutive month of job growth. Read full article...

The gross domestic product, the country's total output of goods and services, expanded at an annual rate of 3.2 percent in the July-September period, the Commerce Department reported on Tuesday. That is up from a previous estimate of 2.9 percent. Read full article...

While health-care costs and premiums are rising -- the recent announcement notwithstanding -- they are rising much more slowly than they did during the George W. Bush administration and, indeed, over the past 50 years. Read full article...

The major factors contributing to the decline include more jobs and health benefits, and a sharp drop in the number of people without insurance thanks to Obamacare. And the trend was evident for uninsured Americans, those with public coverage, and people with private health plans alike. Read full article...

[W]hen it comes to an actual gutting of Obamacare, there's doesn't appear to be a lot of support. One-fourth, or 26 percent, of Americans favor a full repeal of the health care law, while 17 percent say scale it back, according to the Kaiser poll. On the other hand, 30 percent favor expanding the law and another 19 percent want lawmakers to move forward with the law as it is. Read full article...

The Obama administration says it plans to stick with strict fuel economy standards for cars and light trucks for the model years 2022 to 2025, despite protests from some automakers and concern about how the incoming Trump administration might alter them. Read full article...

Your friends need the facts too.

What do Wilbur Ross and Steven Mnuchin -- Trump's incoming Secretaries of Commerce and the Treasury -- have in common?

They're both Wall Street billionaires who got rich preying on working Americans and foreclosing on their homes. And once confirmed, they plan to start bringing back the Bush-era economic policies that helped lead us to the worst economic recession since the Great Depression.

Donald Trump has already shown that he plans to use the presidency for his own personal gain, so it's hardly a surprise that's starting to trickle down to his Cabinet.

But if they think we're going to let them take our economy back to the brink of collapse without a fight, they've got another thing coming. Democrats are going to do everything we can to preserve what President Obama has done to keep predatory Wall Street financiers like Ross and Mnuchin in check.

We cannot do that without your help, Diane. Chip in $3 or whatever you can today to make sure that we are ready to stand up to Donald Trump and his billionaire buddies.
